I had a Black on black 72 280SE 4.5 which I sold. The regret of selling it drove me to scour the for sale ads online for close to 3 years looking for an adequate replacement. I wanted a black or silver 280SE and this is the one I found. I bought it within one hour of the ad going up on the web.
$1600 and it runs well. One minor dime-size dent on the passenger side of the hood.
The only repair I've had to do is to repair the power steering. Everything else was just minor maintenance stuff and new tires. runs well.
Location: Los Angeles.
